3 Key Elements To A Green Business

When I often speak with people about green business they seem to forget about the different parts that make up the word. Everyone wants to talk about the bottom line, which is fine because we are talking about business here, but if we forget the reasons why we are interested in green business then we haven’t advanced at all.

Defining green business can be challenging, but according to Reference.com there are three key elements:

1. Human Rights

2. Renewable Resources

3. Social Responsibility

By being more environmentally conscious we are attracted to this wonderful thing called sustainability. And if we can actually make a living by working with the principles of human rights, renewable resources and social responsibility, we evolve as human beings. Let’s not forget why we write, read, and are interested in the subject. Let’s move forward.

In addition, I have added the following video to help summarize.

  1. Great post!

    If the economics don’t work, recycling efforts won’t either.
    As our little contribution to make this economics of recycling more appealing, http://LivePaths.com blogs about people and companies that make money selling recycled or reused items, provide green services or help us reduce our dependency on non renewable resources.
